The "Basilique Saint-Sernin" is considered one of the landmarks of Toulouse. It belongs to the Camino de Santiago between Arles and Santiago de Compostela and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Basilica should definitely be viewed from the inside! For EUR 2, the crypt can be visited as well.
Toulouse Cathedral
Cathédrale Saint-Étienne
The "Cathédrale Saint-Étienne" is one of the main tourist attractions of Toulouse. Due to the long construction period (over 500 years!) the cathedral is diverse and looks quite a bit strange at the first visit. Because of the extraordinary architecture, it is recommended to visit it. Opening times: Monday-Saturday from 08:00-19:00h Sundays from 09:00-19:00h
Pont Neuf
The "Pont Neuf" is - despite of its name ("New Bridge") - the oldest bridge in Toulouse. It connects the old town to the other side of Toulouse. The approximately 220-meter-long bridge was built from 1544 to 1632, but officially opened 27 years after the end of construction by Louis XIV.
